Descrição: Whether recommended body weight should remain constant throughout adulthood or should be higher for older adults is controversial. The Department of Agriculture's 1990 Dietary Guidelines for Americans 1 recommended age-specific ranges of weight for height, with heavier weights indicated for people 35 years of age or older, but age-specific weight recommendations were omitted from the 1995 Dietary Guidelines for Americans, 2 presumably because the information to support the need for different recommended weights was inadequate. The debate sparked by the dietary guidelines made it evident that more studies were needed to clarify whether age modifies the relation between body weight and mortality. . . .
